I'm going to buy a graphic card for my PC and I have narrowed down my choices to the below-mentioned GPUs.

1. Zotac NVIDIA GT 730 1 GB DDR5 Graphics Card Rs. 5,465
2. Zotac NVIDIA GT 640 1 GB DDR5 Graphics Card Rs. 5,100
3. Zotac NVIDIA GeForce GT 630 1 GB DDR5 Graphics Card Rs. 4,500
4. Galaxy NVIDIA GeForce GT 730 GC 1 GB DDR5 Graphics Card Rs. 4,700
5. Sapphire AMD/ATI Radeon R7 240 with Boost 1 GB DDR5 Graphics Card Rs. 4750

All are more or less of the same price and online forums say they are all similar but I don't know which is better in terms of performance.

My Config :
* GigaByte G41M Combo (Rev 2.0) with PCIe 2.0 slot
* Intel Core 2 Duo E7200 2.53 GHz
* 4GB DDR3 RAM
* Corsair CX430 430 Watts PSU
* 160GB Internal HDD + 1TB WD Ultra External

P.S : Please do mention if any of these cards can bottleneck my CPU or have some heating/compatibility issues with my motherboard or if my power supply is inadequate for any of the cards.

Well, I don't think there is a chance that your CPU will be bottlenecked. Your PSU is of 430 watts so thats fine. Go for Galaxy NVIDIA GeForce GT 730 GC 1 GB DDR5. You told that you are having PCIE X16 2.0 slot in your question, that means it is also fine. If you find my answer helpful, then please pick it as a solution
ill fill ya in on a tip I just found out EVGA has a 90 day pay the difference upgrade on video cards I had a 770 w 4 and paid 120 and now have 780 w 6 vram that way you got 3 months to select/come up w/money for it

EVGA stuff is rock solid too never had anything but and wouldn't change it for da world

I'd get 8 RAM just for future cause
 


Will it run with my CPU or motherboard? I have Core 2 Duo 2.53 GHz and a Corsair CX430 PSU. Please tell me if there is a chance my CPU will be bottlenecked or not? And is the PSU enough to power the GPU and my PC?
